{Giveaway} Can't-Wait Willow

I've lost count how many times my 6-year-old Cate has read "Can't-Wait Willow" since it arrived in the mail earlier this month. After first, she was enticed by the cover. But now she likes to story too. Sometimes Ben sits down with her to read about their new friend Willow.

In the book, Willow is so excited that the Over-the-Top Circus has finally come to town! The only problem is, when left to her own devices, she can’t say "no" to some good things.

On the way to the show, she is distracted by enticing treats and fun that she just can’t turn down. Willow arrives late and is sad to find that not only has she has run out of time and money but she won’t be able to enjoy the pink cotton candy of which she’s been dreaming. Willow is given valuable advice and a second chance.

This is such a powerful, practical lesson for kids. Even as an adult, I sometimes need to be reminded that not every good thing needs a "yes" from me. Some things are better later, when God's time is right. Other things are good for certain seasons. I'm glad Willow helps teach my kids that sometimes the best things really are worth their wait.

Disclaimer: I had no idea I'd have so many giveaways in this blogging season. But my family loves books, and free ones are even better. I only giveaway and promote things I think my family and yours will like. FlyBy Promotions sent me a free copy of "Can't-Wait Willow" for review and is providing a copy to whoever wins this giveaway. My daughter was genuinely excited when I handed it to her the day it came in the mail. I did include an Amazon affiliate link so if you purchase a book through my link, I earn a very small percentage. 

And, speaking of free books ... Here's another great {and easy!} way to get some.
